Design Team Project using Authentique's Pastime Collection
 
 
This design team project for Country Craft Creations was so much fun to create! I used the awesome Authentique Pastime Collection, which is perfect for any and every trip possible. Vintage/retro just flows easily together. I have created my version of a Waterfall Folio. I love the waterfall technique as it takes up such a small footprint but offers soooooo much space for photos and journaling. Perfect!! I used different waterfall techniques for this folio to show how versatile that technique can be.
 
 
This is the front cover for the tri-fold folio. I fussy cut and over layed the ferris wheel portion of the pattern paper to create a pocket to hold some of the many very cool cut a parts that have become photo mats and/or journaling spots. Some of the stickers from the collection I used I matted them and pop dotted the arrow to add dimension and the bottom one to add interest.
 
 
The matted cut a parts from the ferris wheel pocket.
 
 
The backside of the folio. I used one of the stickers from the collection that I matted and applied to the back along with some of the small cut a parts to add interest and decorate the back cover. Love this collection!
 
 
Opening the front flap exposes the 3rd flap in the folio. Again, matted some of the travel stickers to adorn that page.
 
 
The folio fully opened shows all the fun waterfalls! So much space for tons of photos and/or journaling. Fun, fun, fun!
 
 
The inside front flap. This has a 'regular' waterfall on top embellished with a pretty black ribbon. The matted tag slides easily in the vintage camper pocket and keeps the flip up waterfall closed.
 
 
Flip the waterfall up to show more photo spaces and super cool patterned papers used.
 
Under the waterfall more space to add a nice size photo. The camper pocket is roomy enough to add many more photos.
 
 
The center of the folio...... why YES that IS a waterfall!! This one however isn't the norm.........this one is different as it 'swings out' instead of 'flipping up'.
 
 
How fun is that!!!!! Lots of space in this waterfall and something a bit different! Swing out each piece that I created using the retro cut a parts that I matted, love love love it!
 
 
A view of the first two mats swung out.
 
 
Inside the 3rd part of the folio you will find another waterfall and other surprises.
 
 
Open the decorative small magnetic flap to open the side waterfall. It's kinda' like a booklet too....but I chose to include it in this waterfall folio, as I thought it fit just perfect. 8 pages in this piece with lots of fun patterns and photo places.
 
 
Another look at some of the pages in that sweet waterfall/booklet.
 
 
Open the waterfall/booklet all the way to expose another pocket behind the filmstrip roadway. There is also a matted small cut a part in the lower right corner which holds a cute little booklet and small matted tag. So much in this folio!
 
 
I love this collection and this waterfall folio! It came together so easily and holds tons! The overall size is:  4 1/4" X 9 1/8" with
1 1/4" spines. I wanted to make sure there was ample space for many many photos.
